alexa-skill-kit

Parses incoming Alexa requests into a structured object with intent, session, and user data, simplifying access to key components as detailed in the API reference for parsedMessage properties.

Allows returning plain text which is automatically converted to a valid Alexa response object, reducing boilerplate code for basic replies, as shown in the 'Replying with a simple text' example.

Fully supports asynchronous operations by returning promises, enabling easy integration with external APIs and databases, demonstrated in the 'Async replies' section with fetch examples.

Works seamlessly with any AWS Lambda deployment method, including manual setup or tools like Claudia.js, making it adaptable to various workflows without imposing constraints.
